I had a customer looking to antique a clock.
Sand That Sucka

I first sanded the clock with 320 grit sandpaper and used steel wool for the hard to get to parts.
Paint It White!

Next I painted the clock white. The under color of paint should be way lighter than the final look of color you are going for. The glaze will darken it quite a bit.
Glaze of Glory

Next I brushed on the glaze. You have plenty of open paint time for this. Just wipe off excess as you see fit.
Guilding Wax

Next I used a silver metal wax to brighten it up and enhance the details of the clock. After this step you can put a clear coat to lock it all in.
All Done
